All language subtitles for Pier 5, Havana (1959)

The revolution in Cuba
had gone on for five years.

All that time,
I read about it in the Miami papers.

Never paid too much attention.

And suddenly
the whole island had exploded.

The radio was filled with it.

Batista and his government
was on the run,

and a guy named Castro who had
parleyed a handful of Cuban rebels

into a victorious army
was a new hero.

He'd won the revolution
and taken Havana.

As soon as the plane companies
resumed their schedules to Cuba,

I got a ticket in one of
the first flights out of Miami.

The newspaper said there
was still some trouble in Havana.

But I had trouble on my own
and that was more important to me.

And, oh, there was Havana
itself and somewhere down there,

my best friend,
Hank Miller had disappeared.

With all the shooting that had
gone on during the revolution,

I didn't know if Hank was alive or dead,
but I had to find out.

I owed it to him and I
owed it to my conscience.

I hadn't been in Havana in many years,
but everything seemed the same.

Quiet.

Peaceful.

The place didn't look
as if something

like the revolution
had ever happened.

You're Se�or Daggett?

Yeah.

How did you know my name?

It looks like there was one guy

who didn't believe
the revolution was over.

A minor incident.

I must ask you to come with
me to police headquarters, se�or.

What for?

The lieutenant
will explain everything.

Suppose I don't wanna?

Then you will be considered
an uncooperative visitor

and flown right back to Miami
in the next plane.

Well, in that case, let's go.

Maybe it was a bad
beginning in my search for Hank,

but at least
I was off to a fast start.

A guy had been shot dead
right in front of my eyes

and now, I'd been
grabbed by the police.

You are the same Steve Daggett who
made two telephone calls from Miami

to the American Consul
here in Havana

concerning the disappearance
of a Mr. Miller.

Naturally, the American Consul
got in touch with us here.

Unfortunately,
we've had little success.

You've had little success.
That's why I'm here.

Kindly listen to me, se�or.

No, you listen to me.

To you boys,
Hank Miller is just another name

on the missing persons list.

So, you play it slow
and official like.

Well, I want to find Hank fast.

I appreciate your concern, se�or.

Just a few questions, be patient.

Se�or Miller's last job
was as a mechanic

in a small boat factory
near the Waterfront.

Se�or Miller had several
such jobs in the city.

He was fired three times.

Yes. I know all about that.

You own a small airfield
outside of Miami. Is that correct?

You've been checking up on me, huh?

And you offered Se�or Miller
employment and he agreed.

Well, he said
he'd arrive the next morning.

So, I waited all that day
and I phoned him.

No contact.

Never heard from him again.

Waited one week, two weeks...

Why did your friend come
to Havana in the first place?

Well...

He had an itch that, uh,
sort of kept him on the move.

Was the itch alcoholic?

Is that your business too?

It might be.

Okay.

Yeah, he had a problem.
Hank had a drinking problem.

And that kept him
moving from job to job.

I see.

We understand each other, se�or.

There is someone here in Havana
whom I would like you to meet.

Oh, who?

This meeting could help
find your friend.

It's quite important
that you come with me.

Oh, then you're not asking me
to meet this guy, you're telling me.

Mmm-hmm?

Let us say I'm inviting you,
se�or, huh?

Just one small phone call
and we'll be on our way.

For some reason,
the lieutenant was clamming up

about the guy we were going to see.

But whoever he was, he lived well.

This was no flop joint.

Yes. Se�ora will see you
in a moment.

Gracias.

Se�ora?

I didn't know it was a lady.

And a most interesting one.

An expensive one.

Hank never knew that kind.

Oh?

Se�orita Gray, so very kind of you.

Se�or Daggett, I would like
you to meet Hank Miller's wife.

Well, what do you know?

Hank mustn't have been
as broke as he said he was.

I'm very glad to know you.

Any friend of Hank's
is a friend of mine.

Se�orita,

last week, I told you

that an old friend of Se�or Miller
from Miami had called the consul here.

Yes.

With Se�or Daggett here,
I thought perhaps you might recollect

something you didn't remember to
tell me when I first questioned you.

Why should you think that?

Well, since both you and Se�or
Daggett were so close to Se�or Miller,

it seemed natural for me to presume

that you two might have
met in the past.

Well, you're wrong, Lieutenant.

Seeing Mr. Daggett doesn't
make me remember anything.

Well, that's too bad.

After all, as I told you,
Lieutenant,

I hadn't seen Hank for weeks
and weeks before he disappeared.

Therefore, I can't help you at all.

Why did you come to Havana,
Mr. Daggett?

Oh, I have a job to do.

See, Se�or Daggett is cooperating
with us in trying to find Se�or Miller.

And why did you come to Havana?

I have a job singing
at the Mirador.

Wow!

It must pay good money.

Se�or.

Buenos dias!

If I had known you had visitors...

Se�or Daggett, may I present one of the
most eminent citizens in all of Cuba,

Se�or Fernando Ricardo.

Hello.

Eminent before Castro or after?

Se�or Ricardo
does not mix in politics.

He owns many plantations

and he's one of the most charitable
man in all of Cuba to our people.

Looks like charity begins at home.

Doesn't it in your country, se�or?

Se�or Daggett,
I think we had better go now.

Yeah.

Bye.

Adios, se�orita, se�or.

Gracias.

Uh, se�orita...

Please, Lieutenant,
no more questions.

Of course, se�or, but since Se�orita
Gray apparently didn't recognize

Se�or Daggett as someone she knew...

Such an interesting photo of her with
her missing husband and Se�or Daggett.

My men found it
when they went through

Se�or Miller's belongings
in his room.

Adios.

Fernando.

I just didn't want to get us
involved in Hank's disappearance.

After all we had nothing
to do with it.

The police know that.

Well, I didn't want them to know...

That you knew this man Daggett?

Why?

Do you think lieutenant Garcia
is a fool or that I'm a fool?

Steve and I were friends, yes,
a long time ago.

It meant nothing then
and it means nothing now.

Please believe me.

Very well.

Since it pleases me to believe you.

What is done is done.

You knew about Monica and me
before you ever took me up there.

Before that.

I knew that long before
her marriage to Se�or Miller,

you and Se�orita Gray
were very close friends.

Well, if you knew that,
why did you want to bring us together?

To see if you were still
very close friends.

Oh, no.

Wait a minute. You...

You thought that Monica and I...

That...

That we had poor Hank
put out of the way.

It was a possibility.

Well, look.

If you thought I might
have gotten rid of Hank

wouldn't Ricardo have a better reason
since Hank was married to Monica?

No.

Se�or Ricardo never met
Hank Miller in his entire life.

To tell the truth,
he didn't even meet Se�orita Gray

until long after she
and her husband had separated.

So, let us simply forget
Se�or Ricardo in this case.

Si, this is lieutenant Garcia.

Okay.

Pardon me, se�or,
but I must go now.

Ah, Lieutenant, wait a minute.

I'm sorry, se�or,
but there are far more urgent problems

than the disappearance
of your friend.

- Lieutenant...
- Far more urgent.

My poor country is still troubled

by some of Batista's men
who are in hiding

and manage to smuggle arms
into Havana.

They think they might have a
chance of getting Cuba back.

What was happening
in Cuba wasn't my business,

only that Hank had been here
during the revolution.

When I got back to my hotel,

I was still burned about Garcia
throwing me into Monica's lap.

How did you know where to find me?

The lieutenant
didn't mind telling me.

Oh, that's nice of him.

What is he trying to do?

Rub us together like a couple of
sticks to see if he can start a fire?

Steve, I came to explain why
I acted as I did this afternoon.

I know why.

You didn't want Ricardo to guess
you'd ever had anything to do with me.

Perhaps. It's not his concern.

Okay. You've explained.

Get out.

I'm not finished.

I want to tell you
about Hank and me.

About Hank and you?
It's simple.

Hank was a pushover.

He was always crazy about you.

You were on your uppers and you
found out Hank had a couple of bucks.

Did I guess it?

I never thought
you'd hate me this much.

Did you ever give me
any reason not to?

I walked out on you, Steve,

because I couldn't see
any future for us. I admit it.

You and your little airfield,
no money coming in, no chance.

It wasn't much to look forward to.

Does Ricardo know that if
he didn't have a bank account

you'd walk away?

Money can make up for a lot of things,
Steve. Don't knock it.

Ricardo is like me. He knows
what he wants and he goes after it.

He's good to me.

I'm happy for the first time.

Don't spoil it, Steve.

Congratulations.

Please.

Do you need money? I have
money now. I can help you.

Just leave Havana.

That's really something
to be bribed by you.

Steve, I'm not trying to bribe you.

You're forgetting a very
important reason why I'm here.

You've got a missing husband.

What do you know about it?

Nothing. I swear.

We'd been separated long
before Hank disappeared.

I hadn't even seen him in weeks.

I don't believe you.

No.

I think you'd get rid
of a poor drunk like Hank

just so you can latch on
to Ricardo.

That's not true.

Steve, please leave Havana.

You'd like that, wouldn't you?

Hello.

Yeah, this is Daggett.

Who?

Yeah, sure.

When?

A half hour?

Where?

The pier at the end of
Avenida De Las Palmas.

Bottom level.

Okay.

Ever heard of a man called Schluss?

- Gustave Schluss?
- Yeah.

He's the man who owns the
boat shop where Hank worked.

Schluss says he knows
something about Hank.

I'm going to meet him.

Maybe he'll tell me a few
things you're trying to forget.

Then you won't leave Havana?

No. That's the answer.

Get out and let me alone.

This was the pier at the end of
Avenida De Las Palmas, Pier 5.

All the way over I kept wondering.

How did a guy named Schluss
know where to phone me,

and why hadn't he told
what he knew to the police?

A few hours before
I'd come here to get answers,

instead, I found myself
with more questions.

What was I doing here?

What could I do to find Hank that Garcia
and his cops weren't doing already?

Why should a poor drunken mechanic

who never did anyone
any harm in his life,

who once upon a time had the
guts to save my life in Korea...

Why should he vanish in thin air?

Could Monica have had
anything to do with it?

Maybe I should have paid
more attention to that sign

but my head was so filled
with other things

that I didn't think about the fact
that Schluss had asked me to come

to this deserted end of the
pier instead of to his main office.

It was too quiet.

All I could see
was a bunch of fishing boats.

Something about the set up
began to smell bad to me,

and it wasn't the fish.

Schluss?

Schluss?

Se�or Daggett?

Oh, are you, uh, Gustave Schluss?

We have a message for you, se�or.

You have an hour and 15 minutes
to catch the next plane to Miami.

It's a funny thing about this country,
everyone wants me to leave.

Now get out of my...

You have an hour
and 12 minutes left, se�or.

Perhaps now you're willing
to take the plane.

This time I took a good look
at that sign.

I let it sink in.

Schluss's voice
had caught up with me.

Now I was going
to catch up with Schluss.

There were two places
of business in Schluss's name

but so far there didn't seem
to be a guy name Schluss.

Schluss! What a name.

Besides from the amount
of dust on the hall,

this boat hadn't been
worked on in days.

Maybe longer.

Maybe even since Hank disappeared.

Hank's ring.

I'd seen it a lot of times.

He couldn't have just lost it,

because if I could find it,

he could have too.

Maybe he never
got the chance to look.

It was a long shot.

But maybe that ring was telling me

Hank was hidden on the
other side of that trap door.

Hank?

Hank?

Hank?

You, what are you doing?

Daggett.

Yes, he's locked in the store room.

Send me a couple
of men immediately. Hurry.

This was beginning
to drive me nuts.

Hank was gone,
I was being held a prisoner.

And none of it seemed to add
up to anything that made sense.

That frontage would give me
something else to think about.

It didn't look as though guys
just used it to play Gin Rummy on.

The map didn't seem
too important to me.

Just a circle
somebody had put on it

because they were around
a lot of important buildings.

I wanted out.

I wanted way out.

That lieutenant and I
needed a heart to heart talk.

Here.

Come on, boys. He escaped
through the air vent.

So Se�or Daggett, we meet again.

The sergeant tells me
you've been sightseeing

under rather trying circumstances.

Yeah.

I just had a 40 cent scenic
tour through an air vent.

I think my guide
was a character named Schluss.

The man who makes boats?

Yeah.

He phoned me
not more than ten minutes ago

to report that a thief had
broken into his place of business.

Our friend is a smart boy.

He gets an alibi
and the police working for him

before I even have a chance
to open my mouth.

What would you have
the police believe?

I'm not sure.

Please come.

On the way to see Se�or Schluss

you will tell me in detail
exactly what happened.

All of a sudden,
the place was a beehive.

And I had just told Garcia nobody
had been working here for a long time.

- Uh, Gentlemen?
- Lieutenant Garcia, police.

Of course,
the man I talked to on the phone.

I am Mr. Schluss.

Se�or Daggett here tells me you
talked to him on the phone also.

Daggett? I talked to him?

I know of no one
with such a name, Lieutenant.

Skip it. You don't expect him
to tell the truth.

I do not like being called a liar,
Mr... Mr. Daggett.

I never talked to you before.

Lieutenant,
the cellar is over here.

Down there.

Less than an hour ago,

there was a map of Cuba,
Havana on that wall.

There was furniture. There's a table,
some chairs and some crates here.

All the crates
were marked chocolate.

Well, you certainly move fast.

What happened to all the
crates marked chocolate

and all the other stuff
that was down here?

Chocolate? Me?

Mr. Daggett,
I'm on a very strict diet.

My doctor can tell you that.

Well, Se�or Daggett...

Okay.

So there was no chocolate.

I didn't get a phone call.

I wasn't locked in this cellar.

And I didn't get slugged on
that pier by a couple of goons.

All right?

Got it.

We will do what we can to help
find the thief who broke into...

- Are you cracked?
- That's enough, Se�or Daggett.

I insist you return to your hotel

and leave further investigation
to the proper authorities.

Sure.

Mmm-hmm.

Thanks for nothing.

Now even Garcia
looked suspicious to me.

But maybe
I couldn't blame him too much.

Everything that could be done
had been done

to make me look like an idiot.

Schluss hadn't missed the bet

or was it Monica
who hadn't missed the bet.

I decided to find out.

- Is Se�orita home?
- Si, se�or, but...

Good. She'll see me.

Cute kid, ain't you?

You'd do anything
to get me out of Havana.

Well, you're sorry
those hoods didn't kill me?

Hoods? I don't know
what you're talking about.

No?

You're the only one
who knew where I was going.

You're the only one who could
have set me up as a clay pigeon.

Steve, I don't know
anything about this.

That's the truth.

Keep lying but get
one thing in your head.

I ain't leaving Havana until I
find out what's happened to Hank.

Don't you think I want to know?

I've been worried about him too.

I haven't even seen Hank
since we separated.

Won't you believe me?

No.

There was a time you would have.

That's the time
I learned my lesson.

Do you think
I wanted to marry Hank?

That's what throws me.

What did he do? Come up
with an oil well or something?

I had more to offer you than Hank
ever did, and that wasn't enough.

I married Hank
because I was sorry for him.

Because I was sorry for myself.

The music gets me here,
but I don't like the lyrics.

All right.
You won't believe me.

But I'll tell you once more.

If there's anything I can
do to help find Hank, I'll do it.

- Sure. Sure.
- Remember that.

All right. If you won't leave Havana,
what are you going to do?

Maybe I'll find a way to dump
those hoods right on your doorstep.

Well, this was really something.

Schluss coming into the same building,
the same floor.

I'd taken it for granted Monica
was involved in this mess

and now there was the proof.

I told you never to come here.

I didn't want to trust the phone.

For all we know
the whole city is tapped.

I don't like it. I'm afraid.

You blundering idiot. It was
your fault he got into the cellar.

How could I know he would come
into my shop after the beating he got?

I guess those police are
turning the whole city inside out.

One mistake
could cost us our lives.

We may lose them anyhow

before us succeeding getting our
good friend Batista back to power.

We can't afford failure, Schluss.

That new shipment
arrives within the hour.

You take care of it. I will
report what has happened.

Juan Lopez..

This was a new name to me.

But that was okay.

Maybe he was the fresh angle

I needed to put
some of these pieces together.

"Chocolate shipment arrives your
warehouse Tuesday night, 9:30. Stop.

"Payment on receipt. Stop.

"Believe quality should be
satisfactory to Miller."

And the Miller mentioned
in this cable could be Hank.

I didn't expect you back this soon.

I bet you didn't.
Who is Juan Lopez?

- Juan? The man who lives
down the hall? - Yeah.

He owns the Mirador where I work.

Why?

- Just that, huh?
- Mmm-hmm.

Nothing else?

And you're the wide eyed little kid
who's going to help me find Hank.

- Why you... - Steve, I've had just
about enough of you.

Now get out.

Do you know who was just
in Lopez's apartment?

Schluss, the guy Hank
used to work for.

Only Schluss is a phony and
he's tied in with your pal, Lopez.

I've got a cable in my pocket
to prove it.

And here, baby.

Take a...

Take a good look at that.

That maybe
all that's left of poor Hank.

Hank's ring.

Where did you get it?

In Schluss's shop, where maybe
Hank got worked over worse than I did.

You expect explanations from me?

I don't have any.

I don't know
what's gotten into you, kid.

In Miami, I thought you were human.

Boy, the guy can be a real sucker!

Come on.
You're coming with me.

- Where?
- We're going to do a little checking.

You're going to be my insurance.

If Monica and Schluss
were tied up together,

I stood a better chance of
saving my neck if trouble came up.

And Monica was with me.

A cable in Lopez's place

mentioned Hank and a chocolate
shipment due here tonight.

Maybe this time I'll get
a look inside those crates

and see what they really hold.

Why don't you let the police
do you're looking for you?

That's what they're paid for.

Sure.

Depends on who's paying them
and how much.

You were different
in Miami too, Steve.

You used to trust people.

Over here.

Schluss.

Now keep your mouth shut.

More chocolate.

It began to look like Schluss
was cornering a candy market.

Only it wasn't chocolate at all.

Those things were fuses
for aerial bombs.

I'd seen plenty of them in Korea.

And people don't mess with bombs

unless they want to drop them
on somebody's head.

Retreat.

Daggett.

We're walking out of here, Schluss.

If you try to stop us then
your friend here won't like it.

You're making a very big mistake,
Mr. Daggett.

You see, baby,
he don't want you to get hurt.

Out of the way, Schluss.

You'll never get out of here alive.

Take them down to headquarters.

And ambulance for this one.

Come on.

Now, you know who pays the police.

Sure.

Thanks, Lieutenant.

Schluss would have
killed me for sure.

Just you?

The Se�orita will have
to answer for herself.

There are moments, se�or, like now

but I'm not sure you
didn't have it coming to you.

You almost ruined everything. For
days we've had Schluss watched.

You've known about Schluss?

You'll both please
come with me to headquarters.

Buenas noches, Se�or Ricardo.

- Lieutenant.
- Se�or.

I came as quick as I could.

Monica, what has happened?

Se�or Ricardo,
you're a very fortunate man.

Se�orita Gray came within a
few seconds of being killed tonight.

The police tell me you put
Ms. Gray's life in great danger.

Why?

Lieutenant, tell me.

What is this all about?

And how can it possibly
involve Se�orita Gray?

I am not sure
that it does involve her.

The man we arrested, Schluss,
was one of the lower echelon

of a group trying to put
Batista back into power.

Batista?

Well, how would
Hank Miller fit into that?

A very puzzling question.

I would have thought
he had nothing to do with it

but then you found the ring
and the cable.

Se�orita, is there anything
you can tell us?

You've questioned me before.

I've told you all I know.

But then I thought you might
remember something else

like in the instance
of the photograph.

Lieutenant, Se�orita Gray's personal
life has nothing to do with this.

The donations made
by Se�or Ricardo to our cause

when we were
fighting the revolution

placed him and his friend
far above reproach.

Thank you.
And now may we leave?

Si, my apology, se�or,
se�orita. Buenas noches.

Sleep tight, baby.

Don't let your conscience
keep you awake.

You are making a very dangerous enemy,
Se�or Daggett.

He'll have to stand in line.

Send in Schluss.

Again?

He's a very clever and a very
stubborn little man. He tells nothing.

But sometimes there are ways
of seeing things

rather than hearing them
if the conditions are right.

Now, bring in Se�or Lopez.

What is the meaning
of this outrage?

Please sit down.

May I introduce Se�or Daggett,
an American.

I insist on knowing
why I was brought here

as though I am a common criminal.

You are the one presuming
what you are, Se�or.

The police merely wish
your cooperation.

Have you ever seen this before?

No, why should I?
It is not addressed to me.

It was found in your apartment
by Se�or Daggett.

I've never seen it before.

And if this man got into my apartment,
he broke the law.

There are worse ways
of breaking the law.

This man is a dangerous
supporter of Batista.

What was he doing
in your apartment tonight?

Schluss is a dangerous man?

This is not a laughing matter,
se�or.

Oh, I'm sorry
but it seems preposterous.

Oh, Lieutenant Garcia, I never
thought I could get a gentleman like

Se�or Lopez into such trouble.

A million apologies, se�or.

You mean it is true about you?

Yes, se�or.
They arrested me tonight.

But since I visited you and
Se�or Daggett saw us together...

The cable about the shipment of
chocolate was addressed to Schluss.

Why was it found in your apartment?

It must have fallen from my pocket.

And then it crawled up Lopez's
desk and hid under his blotter.

Se�ores, Schluss built my boat.

I'm a speed boat enthusiast.

I race for prices and that's all I
know about the whole situation.

But I assure you,

if I had known he was conspiring
against the new government,

I would have had him
arrested myself.

Very well, se�or. I am sorry
to have inconvenienced you.

You may go now.

And in the future,
you will please remember

that I do not like having
my patriotism questioned.

I am in the cafe business.

My interest is not in politics.

And as for you, Se�or Americano,

since nothing is missing from my
apartment, I will not press for charges,

but I would advise you
to go home to your own country

before you do get into trouble.

Adios.

Take him back to his cell.

It is amazing how many enemies
you can make in one night, se�or.

In my job, se�or, one learns
to be patient as well as vigilant.

I have often found that

if you give a man enough rope,
he will hang himself.

Lopez won't hang easy.

Make sure that rope is strong.

See you.

Adios, se�or.

The next morning,
I felt there was something wrong.

Call it a hunch
or premonition, anything.

All I know is I had it.

- Who is it?
- The police, se�or.

You will please
come with me, se�or.

Oh, something came up?

Yes, sir. The lieutenant
is very concerned.

Se�orita Gray has been
called also, se�or.

Let's go.

And you definitely identified
these as belonging to Hank Miller?

Yeah.

These things are Hank's.

I was afraid something
like this would happen.

I tried to stop his drinking.

I honestly tried, Steve.

I do not think
there is anything to gain

by you're trying to identify the body,
Se�orita Gray

or you, Se�or Daggett.

There is little enough
for anyone to recognize.

Lieutenant, how did it happen?

Over exposure.

He must have gotten very drunk
and fallen in the rain.

Where? Where was he found?

In the remote area about
eight miles from his home.

Well, I guess that
washes up the matter for both of us.

Thanks very much, Lieutenant.

Good luck, se�or.

Se�orita.

I never saw Hank's place.

Where did he live?

A little house in the beach
outside of town.

I didn't know he could
afford anything like that.

When we were first married, I hoped
Hank would change, forget his drinking.

If we had a nice place
to live in...

I bought this little house for us.

You bought it?

I liked Hank.

I didn't love him but I liked him.

He was my friend as well as yours.

I remember those days.

I didn't think you did.

Now, you know.

It was pretty along
the beachfront. Peaceful.

I could understand
why Monica had thought

living here might give Hank a
solid reason for laying off the bottle.

Too bad Hank hadn't seen it
that way.

Oh, this is fine.

Fine.

But I guess it didn't mean too
much to Hank without you in it.

I don't know, Steve.

I'm not so sure I was good for him.

I thought I'd be,
maybe I was wrong.

You're blaming yourself
for what happened?

I wish I could cry about this.

Maybe I did my share
when I had to leave Hank.

It's hard to believe
he's dead, isn't it?

Yeah.

Yeah. He was the kind of guy
that got a boot just out of breathing.

Monica, I'm sorry about
some of the things I said to you.

I'm sorry.

I guess I deserve some of them.

You want to look
through Hank's things?

I hope there's time.

So, I gather

Hank was still carrying
the torch for you

when we were going
together in Miami, hmm?

But he didn't say anything about it

until after you and
I had broken up.

No.

No, he never would.

After that, he begged me
to marry him.

At that time nothing
seemed to make sense.

I was still in love with you.

But I wasn't satisfied.

I had to keep singing
to get places.

I thought if I went to Havana
with Hank...

You know the rest.

Do I?

Let's see.

You married Hank,

you were in love with me.

And now there's Ricardo.

I never stopped loving you.

Huh! It
took Hank's death to make us realize.

Oh, why, what a mess
we made of things.

Well, how do we straighten 'em out?

It looks like Miami again.

You bringing me coffee
like nothing ever changed.

It seems right this way more than all
the other things that have happened.

Including Ricardo?

Including Ricardo.

- Well, he won't like it.
- I know.

I think we'd better be
getting back.

What's that?

Hank?

Hello pal.

Monica!

Give me a hand.

Hank was alive.

His death had been
strictly a plant. A phony.

But who was responsible?

And why had they gone
to so much trouble?

I got to get out of here.

Lie down, Hank. You're in
no condition to move around.

I got to get out.
They'll find me.

Who? Schluss?

Schluss is a flunky.

It goes higher, much higher.

How did you know about Schluss?

Never mind, Hank.

What's the deal?

Why are they after you?

I need to drink.
Brother, do I need a drink!

- Hank, it might not be a good idea.
- Please.

No lectures.

I think there's still
some rum in the kitchen.

Help me up, Steve.

Yeah.

Easy, boy. There we go.

There we go.

What are you doing here?

I came to Havana looking for you.

I remember now.

I had a job in Miami.

Yeah.

I couldn't do it, Pal.

They made me a proposition,
Schluss and his men.

What kind?

Hank Miller,
a mechanical genius, that's me.

Batista's diehards have been buying
up a bunch of old transport planes.

I was supposed to convert them
over into bombers.

You let yourself be talked
into something like that?

Not myself.

They didn't give me any choice.

I told them to go take a fly
and jump

and they clobbered me.

Give me another drink somebody.

I don't feel so hot.

When I woke up,

I was on a tobacco plantation
a hundred miles from here.

Those guys will stop at nothing.

Well, they got their bombers now.

Well, if I didn't do what they
wanted they'd have killed me.

Early this morning, they got careless
and I was able to swipe a Jeep.

That's how I cut this.

Is that Jeep around here now?

No. I drove all day
with them chasing after me.

But finally the Jeep ran out of
gas four or five miles from here.

I walked the rest of the way.

But when they find that Jeep...

They're coming.

Hank, do these characters
know you live here?

No.
The house is in Monica's name.

Okay.

Just sit tight.

They've gone, Hank.

It must be your boys, all right.

- How many of them were there?
- Two.

Oh, there are dozens of them
all around.

They'll turn this whole area
upside down.

They can't afford to stop looking.

Hank, if you did what they
wanted on those planes,

why should they worry
about you now?

I know what they're up to.

At 5:00 tomorrow morning
they're going to bomb Havana.

Why, they're really playing it big.

Besides the planes,

they got hundreds of ex-army
men hiding out in the hills

and spies all over Havana.

Garcia can warn the right people.

Dead.

I'm sorry, hon.

I meant to pay that bill

but I always seemed to get
too thirsty around bill time.

Steve, we've got to notify
the authorities somehow.

We can't let this happen.

Those Batista guys
will be watching the roads.

Hank, you stay and rest for awhile

then we'll make a run for it.

Maybe we can reach town.

Okay.

How do you like that,
the three of us back together?

It's just like old times.

Pablo, your bomber will lead
the apex of the triangle.

You will concentrate in this area.

Point out your objectives.

Castro's headquarters,
Presidente Zone,

- Administrator Justice, State Airport.
- Ah!

The second bomber will
concentrate on Fort Gustav.

And the third
will finish of the job.

The government buildings.

- Captain Emilio reporting, se�or.
- What is it?

Which one?

Miller, the mechanic,
he's escaped from the plantation.

He stole a Jeep.

We followed him but he got away.

I think he must be wounded.

We found the Jeep
with blood on the seat.

Find him, you fool.
Radio headquarters.

I want every one of our men
in Havana in on this. Find him.

How about it, Hank?

You feel rested enough?

Nothing like finding out.

No dice.

We can't wait any longer.

Leave me hear. I'll be okay.

Do you think you can find a doctor
for him, one who can be trusted?

Fernando will know one.

Does it have to be Fernando?

He's influential, Steve.

He'll know the right thing to do.

Sure. He always knows
the right thing to do.

He got Monica, didn't he?

All right.

You get to Fernando.

I'll try to reach Garcia.

We'll drive to the edge
of town and split up.

Both of you know
as much as I do now.

If Lopez and the others find it out,
your lives won't be worth a dime.

We'll be careful.

You just lie there, Papi.

Take it easy.

Sure, pal.

Fernando.

There will be no doctor.

Fernando.

You were not alone
at that beach house, were you?

Were you?

Daggett was with you, wasn't he?

Yes. Yes, he was.

You love him.

You're still in love with him.

Fernando, you're hurting me.

Answer me.

All right. If that's what
you want to hear.

I am in love with Steve.

You have made a bad choice, Monica.

You have left me no
reason at all to protect you.

What are you talking about?

Protect me from what?

My plans for Cuba
did not include Mr. Daggett.

They no longer include you.

Your plans?

Get men
to the Miller's beach house.

Hank Miller is alive.

Don't fail this time.

I want him killed.

Se�or?

- You buy flowers?
- No, thank you.

You're selling more than flowers.

I would not see Lieutenant Garcia

if you want Se�orita Gray
to stay alive.

Don't try anything, se�or.

You know I'm an old woman and I
have a long time to practice with this.

Come with me. Come with me.

All the orders have been given

but the Major wants to
know if there's anything else.

No, all is set.

- You can return
to your post now, se�ores. - Yes, sir.

It seems to me you had a
better selection of friends before.

I could buy their loyalty.

Apparently I couldn't buy yours.

Steve.

Ricardo.
Well, what do you know.

Si?

Lopez.

Well, keep looking.

Miller must be found.

I have no time for tricks.

Miller is not at the beach house.

Where is he?

We left him there.
That's the truth.

You, what do you know?

Well, there's a good show at the
Bijou but I don't think I can make it.

We are determined men, se�or.

And Miller stands in our way.

We must know where he is.

Very well.

There is a legend that Americans
are less romantic than we Latins

but far more sentimental.

We shall see Mr. Daggett
how real your love for Monica is.

Look, Ricardo...

You will have adequate
time to change your mind.

Capitan.

Let me go. Let me go.

Let me go.

Let me go.

Once, I would have killed
any man who touched her.

You have changed it for me, Se�or Daggett.

Since she prefers you now,

you will do the protecting
by telling me where Miller is.

He's at the beach house.

Let me go.

Let me go.

He's no good to us
if he can't talk.

Take him in there
and bring him too.

One of you will tell me what I
want to know before we're through.

He's dead.

There will be one more score
to settle this, Se�or Daggett.

Si, this is Lieutenant Garcia.

Who?

Who did you say this is?

I'm leveling with you, Lieutenant.

I'm Hank Miller.

No. No.
The funeral was a phony.

Look, Lieutenant, I've been hurt.

Will you let me do the talking
before I pass out?

Si, se�or. Go ahead quickly.

No.
Se�or Daggett never got here.

They intend to bomb this morning?

It is almost at now.

Ricardo.

Fernando Ricardo?

He's got to be in on it.

Monica went to his place.

He's the only one
that could have known

to send those guys to get me
at the beach house.

Lieutenant, you got to send your
cops to Ricardo's pronto before those...

Hey, Miller.

Se�or? Answer me.

Se�or Miller?

I'd stalled hoping for a break.

Monica was still in the other room.

I know she'd be safe so long as
they thought I was still unconscious.

But now it was getting light.

Time was running out.

Soon those planes would come over.

Si, this is Se�or Ricardo.

How did they?

The police are on their way now?

Si.Have my yacht ready
to sail immediately.

Hurry.

Radio all posts.

The police have been alerted.

Have the men go into the hills
until further notice

and destroy all the planes
so Castro cannot get them.

No communications, no orders.

Now, how do I get
to Ricardo's boat?

- The pier to Avenida San Juan.
- AvenidaSan Juan.

- Is your car down stairs?
- Yes.

Okay. When the police come,
you tell them where I've gone.

If our friend outside
comes to, shoot him.

You saved my life, baby.

You better know what to
do with it from here on in.

Shoot. Go ahead, shoot.

What are you waiting for?

You're the only one who knows the
names the police will want, Ricardo.

No. You're not going
to die this easy.

- Steve.
- It's all right, hon.

There's nothing
a couple of aspirin won't fix.

We have a great deal
to thank you for.

What about Hank? Is he okay?

Steve, the police got to Hank
too late.

I think your friend
has finally found peace.

Let's go home, baby.
